Testimonials
“Almaz has been teaching me violin one-to-one over the past four years. It has been a real pleasure to learn with Almaz. She’s a very patient teacher and carefully explains new techniques and theory. Almaz always makes sure to give enough time for me to understand and practice new pieces and we’ve covered a wide range of styles and eras of music together. I would really recommend learning with her.”

“Almaz is a really supportive teacher. She’s always patient, which really built up confidence when starting out. She’s also stretching as a teacher – every few weeks she’d introduce a new technique, meaning I could easily see myself progress as I learnt.”
Martin – learned with Almaz from October 2017 to February 2021
“I got in touch with Almaz, wanting to get into folk music for the violin. Along with being a really friendly teacher, Almaz was fantastic in catering for my goals, introducing me to other pieces and styles, and addressing bad habits and stumbling blocks (particularly useful when playing an instrument like the violin and being an adult learner!) Would definitely recommend to any other violin students!”
